According to the Centers for Disease Control, every year, car accident deaths cost families and the state over 3.5 billion dollars in missed work and medical costs. These numbers don’t begin to account for the financial toll personal injuries exact upon victims and families. The Centers for Disease Control notes that Texas is second in the nation when the costs of car accidents are taken into account. Citizens pay more and suffer more due to car accidents.
Auto accidents and truck accidents can be devastating to victims and their families. Victims sometimes face life-changing and disabling injuries and families often have to shoulder additional financial burdens while trying to care for a hurt loved one. If you’ve been injured in an auto accident or a truck accident, you need a skilled Longview personal injury lawyer fighting on your side. Insurance companies and truck companies often have teams of lawyers protecting their bottom lines. You need a lawyer who can ensure that your rights are protected and that you get the money you are entitled to receive for your pain and suffering, lost wages, and medical bills. The Cooper Law Firm understands the tactics that the defendants will be using because the firm has prior experience defending some of America’s largest corporations and insurance companies. The Cooper Law Firm has the insight, creativity, and diligence to help you build the strongest case possible.
Truck accidents can be particularly devastating to victims and their families. Trucks carry heavier loads and when trucks impact cars, the results are often tragic. Truck accident litigation poses unique challenges that differentiate this kind of litigation from auto accident personal injury cases. For instance, your truck accident lawyer in Longview may have to litigate against trucking companies, their insurers, and their drivers. The Cooper Law Firm understands that while many truck drivers are hard-working individuals, trucking companies often place great pressure on these drivers to deliver goods on time.
This can cause drivers to exceed legal hours of service limits, falsify logs, or speed. Drivers may get behind the wheel fatigued or while using prescription or over-the-counter medication. All of these factors can lead to serious accidents resulting in injury or death of innocent citizens.
Texas has recently experienced a large fracking and drilling boom, and as a result, more trucks are on our roads. Texas is used by many truck drivers as a major cross-continental shipping route, and therefore the risk of semi-truck accidents is larger because of the sheer volume of trucks on the road. Multiple studies of truck accidents have found that the volume of trucks is a large indicator of accident risk.
If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, you need a skilled personal injury attorney on your side. The laws and regulations regarding large trucks differ significantly from those for passenger vehicles. The Longview personal injury lawyers at the Cooper Law Firm take the time to review the details of your case and ensure that your rights and the rights of your family are protected by making sure that truck drivers and companies are held accountable for their negligence.
